As a creative partner, Rabbit's Foot (Rabbit’s Foot Studios) collaborated with Vertigo Games and Deep Silver to produce the announcement trailer for “Metro Awakening" which was unveiled to the world during Sony’s State of Play showcase.

Metro Awakening is an all-new, blockbuster, VR game set in the post-apocalyptic Metro universe immersing fans in the highly atmospheric, fear inducing, post-apocalyptic world of Metro, as made famous by the award winning novels of author Dmitry Glukhovsky. As an immersive, story-driven, first-person action stealth shooter VR Game, Metro Awakening takes players on a journey through the Metro’s deepest and most dangerous tunnels, where players will face and conquer death itself in order to fulfil their destiny.

Creating the announcement trailer for Metro Awakening posed unique challenges, particularly in transitioning a highly regarded and beloved franchise into the realm of virtual reality. It was crucial that this trailer not only captured the dark, atmospheric tone and complex mechanics that define the Metro series but also demonstrated that this VR instalment is a significant and worthy expansion of the Metro universe. By meticulously blending cinematic visuals with authentic gameplay experiences from the game, the trailer teased the depth and intensity of the Metro experience in VR, ensuring fans and newcomers alike could feel the gravity and excitement of this new chapter in the Metro franchise.
